Girls enjoy taking part in sport and being active but feel the sports they have access to at school
is limited in comparison to boys.
In the Girlguiding Girls’ Attitude Survey 2021, Covid-19 has significantly and profoundly changed
girls’ and young women’s lives over the past 18 months. The survey captures the pandemic’s
impact and offers a snapshot of how it has influenced girls’ views about themselves and the
world around them. It also tracks their attitudes on wider topics such as happiness levels and
access to STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) subjects. Mental health has
been significantly impacted and it’s the girl’s happiness that now needs to be addressed.
We think all girls should be encouraged to try new activities, discover new skills, and be given an
equal offering in terms of sports available to them. Hertfordshire Golf has put together the Girls
Golf Challenge Badge to introduce golf to all girls and young women across Hertfordshire County
and beyond. We currently have seven clubs below who are happy to be involved and help run the events, these clubs are as follows.
. Welwyn Garden City Golf Club
. Harpenden Golf Club (Natalie Chaston)
. Chadwell Springs Golf Centre (Danny Harwood)
. The Hertfordshire Golf & Country Club (James Jones)
. Berkhamsted Golf Club (Joe Biggs)
